>muh toddlers are shitty and annoying and anti fun

>Muh EA is evil company don't buy the game reee
>Muh idgaf I pay for games I enjoy

etc. etc...

Glad we got that out of the way.

pedophile.

Thanks user, I forgot about that one.

Yes?

lmao

>The open world felt empty as fuck because I'd go somewhere and nobody would even be there until about an hour or so after I showed up.
What i hate with the Open World implemention of EA is that without mods the town gets populated with shit-ton of needless townies in both 3 and 4 that dont live anywhere with their only point being to populate the world a bit but fuck man i want to see my neighbours and such not some homeless potatofaced hobos!

Also in 3 the sheer amount of community lots like 3 or was it 4 bars and in every night only 1 of them is populated because it's the "hotspot" that night so best thing would just be to delete everything but one and then there's the rabbit holes...

I'm not saying the holes are a bad thing for shits like careers etc but fuck it shouldnt have been a problem to make SMALLER versions of all existing holes so you could actually build small village or such shit without going the rabbit hole rug or holes in the basement route for them.

Also no Cast for them either so no way to make your poo poo pee pee business tower look old and rusty or pink Katy Perry's abomination.

>tfw no dine out crack yet

I'll dine on your crack fuck boi.

Spread dem cheeks

Are there any recommended mods or anything I should get for TS4?

Not even pedo and I can do better than that.
Step it up, perverto.

I'm made they took away onesies and matching pajama top/bottom with stripes away for the kids

Is that robe a conversion or is it already in the game?

Nobody plays kids who cares?
t. EA

>because they have nothing to do

Same with toddlers holy shit.

>remove X because nobody plays them

>don't bother to find out why nobody plays them and fix it

reeeee

I like to play as a family.

;_;

Toddlers would be nice but only if they added things like playdates, daycare, and preschool to go along with them, as at least then you could actually do things with them instead of them just going in a crib for the entire day and crying all the time.

Yeah. They're so unfun it's ridiculous.

I'd love having them for family play but they do nothing but irritate the piss out of me.

...

Nose job gone wrong?

That's just your average Kikess

...

>Send sim to have kid at hospital
>All they do is idle and the doctors aren't doing anything either, even though the sim that came with them can do interactions just fine

>testing cheats on
>shift click
>reset sim

gg ez

That should fix it afaik

I'll try that. Also I'm noticing most of my save files are all 7.8mb. Is there anything i can do to make them smaller?

interactions work now, but for some reason they don't have the heart rate icon above them like the game isn't recognizing them as being at the hospital, even though they are.

What's worse is that now they're just stuck going into labor at the front desk and they can't go anywhere

I always have all these problems giving birth, which is part of my dislike for playing family oriented stuff.
I think i ended up just saving right before going to hospital and restarting until it worked or using cheats to go home and come back over and over

... and titty monsters, too.

Kek!

I still need to check if home birth works. I'm not sure which mod would be causing this as I don't have anything that overrides game functionality

Home birth should be fine
The hospital in general has been glitchy as fuck since it was released, and no idea if they've fully ironed out the doctors missing, etc issues

That's got nothing on Crusader Kings 2.

Is there a way to get Newcrest if I pirated Sims 4?

The latest patch pirates are on has it included, windenburg too.

I have the Sims 4 reloaded from the piratebay.

It's got some Star Wars costume DLC but not Newcrest. Am I doing something wrong?

>tf see people posting their sims
>want to post mine
>shitty laptop quality because toaster is shit

I'm saving up for a new one so I can post some screens for you guys

Can I not place new lots on TS4? Are the lots that are in the game by default the only ones I can ever have?
>;[

Lol arent you an entitled little piece of shit, just wait for the upcoming *NEW neighborhood* totally not a DLC-map-pack-pack for only 19,95$!

*note:does not include toddlers*

Do you have all the EPs and such that pirates have?
If you only got base game and it was tpb, it's probably very old release
I got my torrents from the skidrowreloaded or skidrow-games I think

Like new shapes? Yes, we have no world editor tools.

Probably just missing patches. If you want to be on latest pirate patch, you'll need all EPs, GPs and SPs as well, so just get everything.

>skidrowreloaded

I went there and as soon as I click on something there's 40 different pop up pretending to be a bluescreen of death.

can you cook or do experiments with pets in sims3? I'm thinking about making an underground laboratory

Well they have to earn money somehow. Do you have adblock? I recommend uBlock Origin, that's the cool new adblock everyone is using.
Other than malicious ads, what they upload should be safe though I can't say for sure as I haven't tried it myself. Alternatively, you can try games4theworld, look it up on googles.
Games4theworld uploads are safe, that much I can confirm.

No, that's not family friendly or PC, don't be silly.

>games4theworld

Will the Sims 4 torrent there include most of the patches and Newcrest?

I don't see any, are you not using any adblockers?

...

I don't remember anymore, I'll have to search their forums, but Sims 4 torrent could just be the edition you already have.
Get Together is the one that should contain everything released up to that point. If not, you'll also need Get To Work torrent.

Citation needed, but if Get Together torrent is around 2GB then it doesn't include everything. If it does, it will probably be around 5.

I don't. Sims 4 is the first game I've pirated. I usually stay on the normie side of the internet.

You're talking to a man who has actually paid for internet porn.

>You're talking to a man who has actually paid for internet porn.
People do that?

WHAT

So you have ads on Veeky Forums. Right now?
You watch them on youtube?
user, pls.

Your torrent program should list all the files being downloaded and SP01, EP01, GP01 etc are stuff packs, expansion packs, and game packs. You just need to count them to see what's missing.

Hmm, it's 3.7GB, my memory doesn't serve me well. And it's all in one .rar so I can't see what it includes.
Just download both Get Together and Get To Work torrents, then we'll see.

...

>Not even browsing with a dark theme
You sleep at night or something?

Hey guys.

Could any of you recommend me the best Sims 3 torrent out there?

I just downloaded Get Together to check, and you'll need both Get Together and Get To Work torrents.

There's a guide on how to install it properly here
games4theworld.bestgoo.com/t21806-must-read-how-to-install-the-sims-4-correctly

Feel free to ask here if you have problems with anything.

So with the shitty limitation that you can only do certain activities/use certain objects if enrolled in the relevant career, what's the endgame for a single sim?
Hopping between maxed out careers based on what you feel like doing that day?

>endgame

well death, like real life

Living forever is easy.

Using cheats and ignoring those shitty rules

Thanks!

I mod games all the time so installing illicit DLC should be no different. I just needed to know where to look.

They're hardcoded into the game. I saw one mod and only for scientists that allowed you to do the cool stuff without being in the career, and it caused problems of its own.
It's impossible to change paths, even with MCCC, so you become locked out of certain things entirely with progression.

>You sleep at night

bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement for furniture
Besides livestreaming from the gaming career, I haven't touched any job specific interactions, so I forgot those were even things tbqh

So which traits are the best/worst and which Aspirations are the best/worst in Sims 4?

well.. is there a mod?

All traits are shit because they took out the 'good' ones

When it comes to behavior, it's all the same because of emotions.
Just pick the ones that would make it easier to fulfill whichever goals you have in mind. I don't think any of them are that bad.

Most of the traits in CaS are just absolutely terrible. Mood ones don't pop up enough, music lover etc are pretty lame.
The money aspirations and the one that gives no jealousy are okay.

All trash.
The only "good" ones are Perfectionist, Slob, Loner, all the others do literally nothing.

I really miss having a lot more dislike/fear type traits
Fear of water, prude, techophobe, etc

Replay S3 with me bby, vanilla no mods.

:

I can't fap to that though

Freefall

How do I get over the graphical and performance differences and play 3 after 4?

5 just can't capture my interest long but fuuuuuuuck its so hard looking at 3 again without wanting to vomit.

I just wanna enjoy my multigenerational playthroughs of yesteryear again...

>5
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

thepiratebay.org/torrent/12084693/The_Sims_3_-_Complete_Collection_All_sp_ep_2014_repack_Mr_DJ

Stick to 4, wait for more expansions and hope for the best.

There are no graphic enhance mods for 3. Although its game play surpasses 4, if you can't stand outdated graphics there's nothing you can do. It comes down to personal preference with visuals in games.

Performance issues on the other hand a few mods can help improving its stability. Its always going to run like shit, there's no going around it. I've played it so long i've gotten used to it.

Graphic wise 3 isnt horrible. mostly sims being tad uncanny which is why it's best to play worlds with low population and populate it yourself.

As for performance, relatively small world and fiddling with Nraas.
You really dont need to have population limit of 150, even low as 30 will suffice and wild animals? Fuck them and same with most service sims, like who ever calls for a repairman?

And obviously dont install it all you mongoloid, atleast you can skip most stuffpacks and Showtime for adding absolutely nothing of value.

Also:
That's a "heap of shit", get
pirateproxy.one/torrent/11585151/The_Sims_3__The_Complete_Collection_[FULL]__Games4theworld_ instead as with that you can actually choose what to install.

Time traveler

I keep telling people not to mess with the space time continuum.

They won't listen.

I'll try.

What kind of legacy starter should I do?
I'll try to post screenshots or something.

...

>tf see people would post stories/backstories for their sims
>chuckle and wonder why anyone do that
>see myself slowly making a backstory for one sim family

Send help

I should do better but I can't, TS4 killed my motivation to play with and take nice pictures of my girls.

Post it, faggot.

Were you using any lighting mods to get this screenshot?

No clue what mods are there, I saved it from our niggerchan clone thread.

Yeah, a "Super-ultraDeLuXe-REALISTIC ENB" with pink filter to go with it.

That's one of the main draws of the Sims games. Your sims will take on a life of their own (so to speak), if you put the least bit of effort into them.

Aka pointless garbage that makes your game look like shit, ruins your screenshots as raws, and does nothing that you can't apply as aftereffects in photo editing programs for screenshots.
I will never understand ENB.

I deleted the family

Fucking Hitler.
You think killing families is funny?
HUH, user?
